KOTOR: I just started playing on PC. Havent played it in a few years. Posted by Crimsonpanther13 on 12/5 at 9:43 am This game is STILL kickass. Does anyone agree with me that this is the best video game ever?Reply Back to Top |
Posted by GatorReb on 12/5 at 9:45 am to Crimsonpanther13 Without a top one of my tops. Very epic feel to it. With they would come out with a third one. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Crimsonpanther13 on 12/5 at 9:52 am to GatorReb They'll never come out with a third one. With the Revan novel finishing the Exile's and Revan's stories and the SWTOR MMO, we'll never see it. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by Tom288 on 12/5 at 9:55 am to Crimsonpanther13 Revan is my favorite SW character and the story of KOTOR, if done properly, would abuse the original SW films.Reply Back to Top |

Posted by kingbob on 12/5 at 10:39 pm to Crimsonpanther13 It's not the best ever, but it's one of my favorites. I've played through both of them at least 3 times each on my X-Box. Knights of the Old Republic will always hold a special place in my heart.Reply Back to Top |
Posted by loyalauron on 12/5 at 11:07 pm to Crimsonpanther13 Yeah. I had both on PC for a long time, then I misplaced my KoToR1 and by the time I had the brains to try to get another, they were tons of money. I still have my 2, and after jumping through hoops to install it on W7, I've enjoyed the hell out of it. They just re-released them both w/ W7 compatibility though, available on Steam & in stores. I still had some issues with installation on W7 on my laptop & desktop, but I made it work. Love them! I play a little SWTOR, too, when I have time. I encourage any KoToR fans to try it out (it's free now). Reply Back to Top |
Posted by sbr2 on 12/5 at 11:13 pm to loyalauron Have you tried out KoToR2 with the mod that adds in some stuff that was not released with the game?Reply Back to Top |
I'd like to play this one again, but according to Steam you need to have XP or Vista. What OS are you using? Reply Back to Top |
I did the user workaround when I played KoToR2 on Windows 7, but apparently they have a compatible version out now. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by loyalauron on 12/6 at 11:36 am to THRILLHO quote: Yeah, on Steam it says only KoToR2 is compatible with W7, and that 1 isn't. But, on the disk version of the re-release, it says that both are W7 compatible. You can still install it and run it on W7 but it takes some maneuvering- you just have to give the .exe permanent administrator privileges and run it using an XP Service Compatibility Pack. There's a ton of stuff about it on the Bioware forums if you're interested. Reply Back to Top |
Posted by KajunGator on 12/6 at 12:13 pm to loyalauron I enjoy SWTOR, on there every day, but it will never be as good as KOTOR.Reply Back to Top Refresh |

Ever wonder why, when dinner is ready, whether the meal includes soup or not, the cook exclaims, "Soup's on"?
Soup – nourishment and comfort in a bowl.
Our language is replete with soup idioms. A facility to feed the hungry and poor is a soup kitchen. A revved up car is "souped up." If it has it all, it's "from soup to nuts." A real cinch is "easy as duck soup." And when you're in the thick of it, you're "in the soup."
Soup is mysterious, deep and alluring – think witch's brew and blinding fog – the giver of life from whence we come: the prehistoric primordial soup. And don't even get me started on the whole "Chicken Soup for the Soul" series.
In Grandma's day soup might be a meal as she stretched her meager allotment of meat, poultry or fish, if she had any, to feed her hungry family.
Say the word "soup" and instantly that tummy warmer from childhood comes to mind. The steaming bowl of tomato soup my mother fed me when I was sick. Holiday dinners with Aunt Irene's matzo balls or Aunt Sally's kreplach. My mother's incredible chicken soup.
With chillier weather upon us, I long for the comfort of a bowl of soup. Whether a first course or a full meal, nothing beats it for sheer nourishment.
When my son, Stu, and daughter-in-law, Shelly, lived here in Southern California, they came to love Mexican food, and one of their favorite dishes was the chicken tortilla soup at the now defunct Next Door Grill on Harbor Boulevard in Fullerton.
After they moved to Minnesota, I spoke to chef David Weiss and requested this recipe, which he had developed as his final exam when he attended Fullerton's Orange County School of Culinary Arts. Shelly made some slight changes to the original, and now she and Stu, as well as their children, enjoy it in Minnesota. (So maybe getting the recipe for them wasn't such a good idea!)
Feel free to modify the spiciness to your liking. The heat of the chilies is in the veins and is released when you cut into them, so the more you chop, the spicier it gets. The best advice is to experiment and see what your heat level is.
The oil from the chilies can do the same number on your hands as they do on your throat, so after handling them, rub your hands with lemon juice and wash them several times in warm soapy water. And remember, if anticipation of eating this dish brings tears to your eyes, this would not be a good time to wipe them.
So grab a spoon, put a napkin in your collar and dig in. Slurping is optional.

Military exercises cancelled
Wednesday - 8/24/2011, 4:37pm EDT
Egypt and the United States are scrapping this year's "Bright Star" military drills, the largest exercises in the region. A Pentagon official said "ongoing transition events" in Egypt's move toward democracy is the main reason. Egypt's leadership vacuum is also another key issue. The "Bright Star" drill dates back to 1981. It's one of the longest running drills for the U.S. and partner countries.

iDVD '09 connects with other iLife '09 applications to create slick, professional-looking DVDs incorporating pictures, movies, and music. In iDVD '09 Essential Training, Garrick Chow takes a detailed look at how to create a DVD using Apple's built-in shortcuts or the provided customized templates. Users will see how to build menus and submenus, automatically create scene selection menus, and archive the final project on a disk or as a disk image. Exercise files accompany the course.
In this movie I'd like to show you how to create a Scene Selection menu for the movies on your DVD. I'm sure you are familiar with what I'm talking about if you've ever played a commercial DVD on a TV before. A Scene Selection menu is a menu that lets you jump to a specific point or scene of the movie. This can be especially useful if you have a long movie and you want to offer your viewers a way to jump right to a particular point they might want to skip to. In iDVD it's actually very easy to create a Scene Selection menu, but it's kind of limited. Let me show you what I mean. As we have seen right now this Play Main Video button takes me right into my movies. So if I Double-Click that, that's the same as Clicking Play on my DVD player and you can see it's now playing the video.
(Music playing.) But I want to add chapter markers or scene selections. To do so, I Click once to select the button for the movie I want to add the scene selection for. Then I choose Advanced > Create Chapter Markers for Movie. Now this is the limitation of creating chapter markers in iDVD. You can only have iDVD automatically create chapter markers every X number of minutes. You cannot browse to specific points in your movie and manually add markers at points that make sense, which to me is pretty unfortunate and can create some nonsensical scene selection buttons which depending on your movie, may drop you right into the middle or end of a scene.
Fortunately, you can use iMovie '09 to create chapter markers in your movie at specific locations and then import the file directly into iDVD and then have iDVD automatically create a Scene Selection menu based on those chapter markers you manually created. And I'll definitely be showing you how to do that later on. But for now this is how you create a Scene Selection menu in iDVD, which is a quick and easy way to add places in your video for your viewers to jump to. I think one chapter per minute is probably a good amount of time to jump ahead, but that's entirely up to you. So I'll Click OK. Notice that it's changed name of the button to Southern Utah.
It took the original name of the video file that we brought in here, called Southern Utah and change the name of the menu, which to me is okay because the button previously said, Play Main Video, but now when I Double-Click the menu, it doesn't play the Main Video anymore, it takes me to the sub-menu. And I have two options in here, Play Movie, which now when I Double-Click that will play the movie. But I have also the menu that's been created called Scene Selection. And when I Double-Click that, now I have a scene menu labeled scenes 1, 2, 3 and I have got Beginning, Chapter 2, and Chapter 3. Now these are just buttons, so I can rename these. So I might want to call this Chapter 1 instead of Beginning or I could name it after what the scene is about. In this case, maybe sunset. Chapter 2 could be called clouds, Chapter 3 could be called sunrise, and so on.
I can even rename the title here instead of Scenes maybe I would prefer the word Chapters. But the point is iDVD automatically generated the Scene Selection menu for me and just like any other Scene Selection menu, I have the ability to edit its Drop Zones, or open its Menu Info window, and play with things like the Loop Duration. Or if I want the outro in there, and it's just a regular menu, and I can Click the Back button to work my way back to the main menu. So there it is. Again, it's not the greatest way to create chapter markers, but at least you can quickly create a means for your viewers to skim through your movie this way. And again, I'll be showing you how to manually create chapter markers at specific locations using iMovie later on.

Indeed, to illustrate how well-orchestrated the event was, consider the final slide on the screen, which stated, "Thanks for taking the time to attend," followed by a line that read, "Questions."
It was too much for Anderson, who rose from his seat about three-quarters of the way into the presentation. He'd had enough. Looking too dapper for the room in his suit, Anderson recalled being told 37 years ago that Agent Orange would not harm people, that it was only bad for plants, and that he could drink it.
"Can you tell me with no uncertainty that you can prevent human-feces viruses from getting into our drinking water?" he asked as officials sat silently. "Do you know the source of deadly viruses is human feces? And we have all these people immigrating here to Orange County from all over the world. Who knows what viruses they are bringing with them?"
Then he said, "I gotta go" and split. Jim Anderson had left the building. Well, not quite. Caught in the lobby, the former member of the U.S. Army Chemical Corps was still shaking his head in disbelief over the groundwater proposal.
"It's just contrary to common sense," he said. "You see the research they've done today. It's like first grade. They are talking about taking human feces and mixing it with our drinking water. Viruses cannot be totally filtered out with reverse osmosis. Microorganisms are very small. For oxidation and bleach to work, it will take a huge amount. It's very unlikely they will have the amount of oxidation to do it."
After the roadshow, as people mingling in the back of the room munched on chocolate-chip cookies and gawked at water-filtration models, Dawes and Wildermuth were asked if they expect more tough questions when the forums move to other towns.
"People should ask questions," Dawes said. "Any time you tell people we're going to take human sewage and turn it into drinking water, they look at you and say, 'You're nuts.'"
He paused a beat, looked at Wildermuth, and then added, "We aren't, are we?"

Novak Djokovic saved five match points in the second set before outlasting two—time defending champion Andy Murray 5—7, 7—6 (11), 6—3 Sunday in the Shanghai Masters final.
In another entertaining struggle between the two, Djokovic seemed headed for defeat when Murray was serving for the match at 5—4 in the second set, but saved one match point in that game before breaking back for 5—5. He then saved four more match points in a tense tiebreaker and carried his momentum into the deciding set, breaking the Briton twice to earn his fifth title of the year.
It was Murray's first loss in Shanghai in 13 matches.
Murray saved two match points in the final game, but sent a backhand long on the third.

GRAND LAKE —The Big Meadows Fire grew slightly overnight and is now partially contained.
Rocky Mountain National Park officials estimate the fire is 353 acres in size, from 333 acres yesterday, June 13, and about 30 percent contained.
There remains no imminent threat to any communities or structures; Rocky Mountain National Park and the town of Grand Lake remain open, but visitors to the west side of the park are strongly cautioned to be aware of increased traffic and aircraft associated with the fire.
Hand crews will continue to strengthen fire lines along the northwest flank of the fire, according to a Park press release issued on the afternoon of Friday, June 14. Crews will also continue to reinforce fire lines along Tonahutu Creek with the goal of completing hose lays, installing sprinklers, improving and mopping up existing burned areas along the southern flank of the fire.
Fire activity yesterday was largely limited to two areas: an area on the eastern flank of the fire on a south-facing slope, and an area along the southern flank of the fire with a similar southern exposure. Little change in the weather is anticipated today, Friday, June 14. Firefighters will likely experience afternoon winds of 10-15 mph with gusts to 25 mph, shifting to the west in the early afternoon. A chance for afternoon thunderstorms will persist throughout the weekend but these storms may bring little moisture to the area.
For today, fire-fighting resources on the fire include an initial attack module of eight fire-fighters, two interagency 20-person Type I hotshot crews, two interagency 20-person Type II handcrews, and five fire engines.
Three additional Type I hotshot crews have been ordered and should arrive on the fire today. Available air resources include two air attack small planes used for fire reconnaissance, two light helicopters, a medium helicopter, and one large heavy helicopter.
A National Guard Blackhawk helicopter remains on standby to assist fire operations in the event of a medical emergency.
Currently seven trails are temporarily closed in the area – the Onahu Trail, the Green Mountain Trail, the lower Tonahutu Trail, the Tonahutu Spur Trail, the Grand Lake Lodge Spur Trail, the Timber Lake Trail, and the trail which branches toward Mount Ida from Milner Pass. Trail closures do affect a section of the Continental Divide Trail that passes through the Park.

How do organic and inorganic pesticides react to temperature and relative humidity?
Marcus F., FL
I'm going to fish around a little bit here with the word "organic", but from your question I am assuming you are referring to the chemical make up of pesticides rather than their use for Organic Food Products. These are, of course, two very different topics and ones that likely cause some confusion. Organic chemicals are those that contain carbon in their molecules, and these comprise the vast majority of the pesticides in use in pest management. They often are synthetic molecules that were created in a lab, but also include the great many natural pesticides that are derived from plants, such as pyrethrum and essential plant oils.

Levi Johnston's Mother Tries to Explain Drug Arrest
Filed under: In The News
Johnston claims that she had a hysterectomy eight years ago, and subsequently required seven additional surgeries to deal with complications. "I was in pain, and I'm still in pain," she says. "I have been trying for years to deal with the pain. I'd rather not comment any more but it's not everything that they're saying." The string of surgeries and the accompanying chronic pain forced the 42-year-old to abandon her career as a hairdresser.

Johnston also claims that she was prescribed OxyContin by the physician managing her care. Okay, sure, but it doesn't exactly explain why she texted a police informant back in October, to arrange to sell him the drug. Or why she was caught on tape selling the drug to an informant was wearing a camera and a microphone.
It's not entirely implausible that Johston got hooked on painkillers as the result of an actual medical issue; she wouldn't be the first person to find herself in that position. Remember when Rush Limbaugh came clean about his addiction to OxyContin and hyrocodone? He claimed to have gotten hooked after back surgery, and checked himself into rehab. Of course, he wasn't selling the stuff to his neighbors, he was just taking way too much of it himself.
It's hard not to feel for Sherry Johnston. She has a brand new grandbaby, who she says looks "just like Levi," but instead of enjoying her role as the Nana, she's facing jail time for second-degree misconduct involving a controlled substance. And of course, since little Tripp's other grandma is Sarah Palin, the media are parked right outside her house. That can't be fun for her.
But it's also difficult to really believe her story -- if she were addicted to painkillers, wouldn't she be more interested in BUYING them than in SELLING them?
What do you think -- is Sherry Johnston telling the truth? Do you buy the story of pain management gone wrong? Or there something else going on here?
entirely plausible - chronic pain is a horrible thing. | |
possible, but only barely - why was she SELLING the drugs? | |
a complete crock - she's a dealer, plain and simple. |

dana said...A lot of people with drug addictions WILL SELL DRUGS in order to finance their habit. Her story is not that far fetched if you actually know anything about addiction. Even though I can't stand Sarah Palin, I can definitely have some sympathy for this woman and hopefully she'll get some help.
shm08 said...I am very familier with pain killer addiction. No, I am not the addict, but someone very close to me is. There is usually no one who can help these people other than themselves. And that unfortunately does not happen. They lie, steal and do whatever necessary to fund their habit. They very often hurt the ones they love the most, because they do not realize what they are doing. Or etither they ahave lost the ability to care because of their addiction. As someone whe has been dealing with this type of addiction with a family member for almost 10 years, it makes me very angry for people who have no idea what the situation is really like. It is most often not the addict that is hurt, but the people who are close. They are not able to do anything to change the situation and it is heartbreaking. I do feel for this woman, but I feel mostly for the family. I for one know what it is like.
JEANNIE said...I AM JUST LIKE EVERY ONE ELSE. I DO NOT KNOW THESE CIRCUMSTANCES, THEREFORE CANNOT MAKE JUDGEMENT HERE. ALL PEOPLE EVERYWHERE MUST WAIT FOR ANY INVESTIGATION TO BE COMPLETED BEFORE ANYONE CAN MAKE ANY COMMENT ON THIS. IF THIS LADY IS INDEED HAVING HEALTH ISSUES, I AM SO SORRY. IF A CRIME HAS BEEN COMMITTED, THEN ONE MUST PAY FOR THEIR INVOLVEMENT. DON'T GET ON YOUR HIGH HORSE ABOUT SOMEONE'S PROBLEM THAT MAY OR MAY NOT BE GUILTY.
wndrmel said...I could not have said it better. Thank you. So many people are on here to judge really fast just because maybe it is something that they read in the paper or on the internet, or saw and heard on tv. Until you can pass judgement on yourself then how can you pass it on someone else. Nobody is perfect and there is always TWO sides to every story. Everyone needs to think before they react.
ER said...To CK, Palin doesn't make excuses, just facts. Something you and the liberal media can't comprehend
Cearralyn said...I don't believe this liar. My daughter is also in chronic pain from vicious beating several years ago, and SHE does not sell drugs! Mrs. Johnston is just trying to get herself out of a situation she should not have gotten into in the first place! Don't you people pay attention!? She was SELLING it, and that has NOTHING to do with being in pain! It has EVERYTHING to do with dishonesty and GREED!
Ron said...Many of the commentors no nothing about addiction.. Being addicted frequently reduces the opportunity for employment and the drugs bring much more selling to people without prescriptions producing the money to continue feeding the addiction. Until you've delt with the problem just criticise. Wait until it's one of yours and lets hear the excuses
Gracie Wellendorf said...Cearralyn, Have you had a hysterectomy/castration? If not, please don't judge her for being on pain killers. This surgery is a barbaric act against women and has to stop NOW! All women after their surgery react different; some have more pain, some have more side effects, some have more surgeries to repair what their doctor has done to them and some just can't fight their pain anymore and take their life!
It is not an easy life after this damaging surgery especially when you lose everything you worked so hard for because that zest for life is gone.
If doctors were castrating men to the tune of women, a law would have been passed years ago. Why do women have to fight so hard to get something passed to protect the young girls and women?
Cearralyn said...Grace, you obviously did not actually READ my previous post! I am NOT judging her for being on pain killers. I have been in a lot of pain myself during my life. As I said, my daughter has chronic pain. She was beaten in the head within an inch of her life and has suffered immensely in the seven years since then! Most people who are in pain do what they can to control the pain. What is this woman doing SELLING drugs!? Yes, I HAVE had a hysterectomy, so I know what that entails. BUT, what this woman did has NOTHING to do with pain! SHE WAS SELLING DRUGS! What part of that do you NOT GET!!?? Another thing, she did not lose everything in her life. She CHOSE to sell ILLEGAL drugs, and now she has been caught and is trying to lie her way out of it! Personally, I do not think any woman should have a hysterectomy, there are other, less invasive ways instead of doing that, but, again, there is no excuse for what this woman got caught doing, and there is no excuse for anyone supporting what she did!
Cearralyn said...Look, I HAVE had a hysterectomy. I know a lot of women who had had a hysterectomy. Some were and are in a lot of pain! They do not sell drugs! My daughter was beaten with a mag flashlight again and again about her head to within an inch of her life, and she is in far more pain than Mrs. Johnston ever thought of being! All day, every day, for years and years...sometimes she can hardly move to even sit up! She no longer draws. She no longer writes poetry. She no longer dances. She did not decide she had to sell illegal drugs! Mrs. Johnston is a crook, no matter HOW you people try and whitewash what she was CAUGHT doing! It has NOTHING to do with pain! She was SELLING! She did not lose everything in her life. You want to talk about pain? How about having a torn cervix in several places and trying to take care of two small babies. Why don't one of you try draining an old wringer washer into a bucket and lifting seven pails of water to a waist-high sink because there is no drain in the floor, with your insides all torn up? Do you want to know what kind of pain THAT is?! Anyway, all this talk about chronic pain is irrelevant! Mrs. Johnston was selling drugs...SELLING! What if she had decided to sell those drugs to one of your children? Would you then be so lenient towards her! By the way, just because a woman has a hysterectomy, it does not mean she is going to lose her husband and everything else! There is such a thing as rising above what happens to you and carrying on without resorting to illegal activities. I would think more of Mrs. Johnston if she would just admit to what she got caught at and stop lying!
fr1 said...Hey, Sarahs yesterdays news. How about some drug and booze stories on the Kenedys. Carolyn always looks like she's on something.
Bwanasrrs said...Good Grief, I suffer from Chronic Pain, I use pain killers that would knock out a horse but barely manage to give me a normal life. I am beyong careful about my meds. I go to a Pain Management Dr and you have to walk a fine line, scripts are written on emonth at a time and counted out at every appointment to aasure you are not abusing them. I have gone without my meds because I forgot the bag when going on a weekend trip, You do not put yourself in the position of being without meds if you really need them. EVER. This woman got busted selling the drugs. She wanted money not relief from pain. I feel for the family but they need to stop making excuses and deal with this honestly or she will never get better in any sense of the word. Thank Heavens we will not have to deal with this in the big picture of who runs our country, it was bad enough when the Carters were trashed because of Brother Billy and he was just a redneck with a drinking problem.
CREEKMORE said...AMEN. I AM IN PAIN MANAGEMENT, TOO, AND YOU ARE EXACTLY RIGHT ABOUT HOW IT GOES DOWN. MY DOCTOR WANTED TO KNOW WHY I HAD TWO EXTRA DOSES LAST FALL. HE WAS PRETTY UPSET. IT FINALLY HIT ME THAT IT WAS BECAUSE I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL WITH PNEUMONIA FOR TWO DAYS. I HAD BETTER NOT HAVE TOO LITTLE OF TOO MUCH. DOCS DO NOT WANT TO LOSE THEIR RIGHT TO WRITE THOSE SCRIPTS. ALSO, THEY DON'T WANT TO RISK LANDING IN JAIL THEMSELVES. THE WOMAN IS OBVIOUSLY TRYING TO LIE HER WAY OUT OF THIS BUT IS DOING A VERY POOR JOB OF IT. JEANNIE NEEDS TO GET A GRIP. SHE NEEDS A REALITY CHECK.
Bwanasrrs said...It just burns me, folks who must rely on heavy pain management do not look any different than any one else. We are better schooled in how to avoid aggravating our pain levels and we take responsibility for it. When any one can sell part of their script they are lying 7 ways from Sunday. Just because you have learned how to jerk a doctor around does not justify the action. This is why the laws are so strict and the doctors so closely regulated. I am not saying she did not develop a pill problem while undergoing her excessive surguries, but seriously, wouldn't they have made her tribulation part of a story in the campaign for the big office? It would surely make the pleas for improved medical care look very sincere on any side. I do not know a human alive who would not have been in court suing for that many surgires after a botched operation.
But we are asked to believe and sympathise with a woman willing to sell her presrciption drugs to an undercover officer. Don't. think. so. nope someone truly addicted to a pain med is not going to bewilling to sell them for something like 5-8 00 a tablet. Yes we know these things because being in pain management people are always asking if you have spare meds or would be willing to sell any? A flat no is acceptable, you would not sell your insulin if you were a diabetic .... wrong is wrong.

Learning how to control the movement of electrons on the molecular and nanometer scales could help scientists devise small-scale circuits for many applications, including more efficient ways of storing and using solar energy.
Research in this field by Marshall Newton of BNL's Chemistry Department is funded by the Office of Basic Energy Sciences; Division of Chemical Sciences, Geosciences & Biosciences; within DOE's Office of Science. On March 14, Newton presented a talk at the 229th National Meeting of the American Chemical Society, in San Diego, California, highlighting the theoretical techniques used to understand the factors affecting electron movement.
"Electron donor/acceptor interactions govern a huge number of microscopic processes that everything and everybody is dependent upon," says Newton, "from the movement of electrons in electronic devices to the separation of charges necessary for life processes such as nerve cell communication and photosynthesis."
Theoretical chemists like Newton work on developing models to understand these interactions in molecular systems, where complex molecules with arbitrary shapes communicate electronically over long distances. Measuring the electronic conductance, or the strength of electron transfer, is one essential partof understanding how the electrons move.
Newton is particularly interested in learning how the atomic nuclei that exist in the surrounding environment affect the electrons' flow. "The nuclei produce what we call vibronic interactions, which can inhibit or facilitate the flow of the electrons," Newton says. "So we need to understand this effect of the electrons' 'environment' if we want to control the flow."
For example, Newton says, "If you are trying to move charge or energy down a wire, you ideally want it to move down a particular linear pathway. If you understand what factors aid or hinder conductance, it should be possible to align the conducting properties in one direction and inhibit them in other directions to achieve that goal."
Through collaborations with experimentalist colleagues, among them, John Smalley and Steve Feldberg of BNL's Chemistry Department (see, for example, "A Nanowire With a Surprise," in the Bulletin of March 25), Newton regularly has a chance to test his theoretical analyses against actual experimental results.
"The more we look into these processes theoretically and experimentally, the more complicated the picture becomes. But we think we are getting a good understanding of the key variables that control events at this scale — what promotes good electronic communication and what may inhibit it," he says.
With that understanding, it might be possible to design molecular systems to achieve particular goals, such as improving upon photosynthesis — a research initiative actively supported by DOE's mission to secure America's future energy needs. One of the first steps in photosynthesis is getting charges separated, then using that energy to make chemical energy you can store for later use. But surpassing nature's design remains a major challenge.
According to Newton, such rational chemical design is far from impossible: "Synthetic chemistry is open-ended. If you have an idea about a type of molecule you want to build, you can do it, guided by theoretical understanding to direct your design," he says.

Thread: Air Conditioning and NFPA
07-02-1999, 02:07 PM #1wrjfd59Firehouse.com Guest
Air Conditioning and NFPA
I am invovled in a truck committee that is going to provide specs for a new rescue pumper/rescue, we wanted to provide ac in the crew cab to use for rehab, one member of this committee has said that NFPA and OSHA regulations do not recomend ac on fire trucks. and also that it is not good for the firefighters health due to causing possable fluid in the lungs! if anyone has any info on ac in fire trucks it would be a great help. Thank you
07-02-1999, 05:37 PM #2K AFirehouse.com Guest
Early on in your career you wan't to learn the line, "where is your proof?" If someone makes a statement they should be able to provide proof in writting. If not ignore the statement.
If he is correct then almost all the manufacturers are knowingly breaking federal and state law and not following the concensus standard that a majority of them helped write.
07-02-1999, 08:57 PM #3morrissFirehouse.com Guest
Never heard of any law or fluid problems. We've had AC in our Engine since 1993 with no problems. It is excellent for rehab and for keeping members "fresh" prior to arriving in high heat/humidity conditions such as we have in Virginia.
07-02-1999, 10:44 PM #4S. CookFirehouse.com Guest
KA is right, get the proof from whoever this guy is (then share it with us). If it were true, the EPA or some other government agency would have outlawed A/C long ago.
They are great for rehab.
07-03-1999, 01:39 PM #5Ricky BodinFirehouse.com Guest
Ask him for the proof! If you are in a region that is hot and humid like we are (upper 90's w/ 80 to 90% humidity is common) you would be crazy not to spend the extra few hundred dollars for the a/c. In the department that i work for we have three enclosed cab trucks, the first which has no a/c was bought by an old chief that would still have us riding on the tailboard if there were no laws against that. The next two were spec'd by the engine crews a few years later, and of course has a/c. These trucks did not cost any more than the other one and the guys almost fight to ride these two.
07-03-1999, 10:40 PM #6fridayFirehouse.com Guest
Horse Radishes wrjfd59! Not only is a/c not bad for firefighters, it helps keep your men from getting too hot in the summer months, unless you're not bunkering out on the way. Demand to see any rules supporting this nonsense.
07-04-1999, 06:04 PM #7wofd1Firehouse.com Guest
The A/C is worth putting on engines. My question is for discussion, would you want your rehab that close to the scene?
07-04-1999, 09:48 PM #8FJSpinelliFirehouse.com Guest
My career department just ordered (2) new engines with AC - front and rear (crew area). We spend most of the day tour in our rigs doing inspections and so on. Our current vehicles bake our brains out, then just for fun, we put on our snow suits to respond to a run. Not a nice picture. Your truck committee member is talking out of a certain piece of his anatomy. OSHA and the NFPA would have never passed such a regulation/standard without a big fight from the people who operate the vehicles. Air conditioning is an important part of todays emergency vehicle.
07-30-1999, 06:48 PM #9JRESCUEFirehouse.com Guest
I would reccomend the AC. It works great for a rehab because it's right there. You don't have to get another piece of equipment that way. It's also great for the ride back to the Fire station. The people that are making those statements are not the wokers in this biz! So just tell them to blow there smoke somewhere else we already get enough!
07-30-1999, 10:43 PM #10InfernoFirehouse.com Guest
I look at the NFPA as guidelines, not rules to live by. Do you have every single piece of equipment on your truck that they want you to? It is very hard for a department to be 100% NFPA compliant. I'm not saying that it is impossible for a dept. to be NFPA compliant but it is very difficult.
08-10-1999, 03:52 AM #11cruiserFirehouse.com Guest
I personally would recommend getting the a/c, it is well worth the investment. I know we are currently working on specs for a new rescue and it will definitely have a/c. I have not heard or seen anything from the NFPA or OSHA about recommendations on a/c. However, In the Emergency Incident Rehabilitation booklet published by the USFA, "Members should not be moved from a hot environment directly into an air conditioned area because the body's cooling system can shut down in response to the external cooling. An air conditioned environment is acceptable after a cool-down period at ambient temperature with sufficient air movement." Good luck with your new truck.
08-12-1999, 05:56 PM #12captlenFirehouse.com Guest
Let me take a guess, is the member of your committee making the negative statement about ac on apparatus a commissioner or boss. Sound to me that he just not want to spend the money on that item. Sounds very old school. I would also agree with the others that this statement needs to be backed up with proof. As for my own experince, my dept. has two apparatus with ac. we love it and thing it very beneficial to the health and safety of our members. I think it's a must and I would get it.
08-14-1999, 01:42 AM #13DDFirehouse.com Guest
Do your chiefs'cars and big brother politicos have A/C in their vehicles?
If public money bought them A/C, then why can the gripe about it in an engine?
08-14-1999, 12:58 PM #14Truckie from MissouriFirehouse.com Guest
My experience has been when the A/C works, it's great!
I have an answer to the alleged rules:
If in fact rules like that DO exist, we should retrofit ALL 4 door trucks with the ability to take the top off, like a hard-topped convertible. See how they react to that!
Proud Member of IAFF Local 3133!
Stay safe.

All eyes will be on Chris McAdam as Hong Kong begin their title defence at the Emirates Airline Cup of Nations against Zimbabwe today.
Saturday, 8 December, 2012, 2:29amIt was inevitable that Keith Robertson chose to put self before country, or in this case the Special Administrative Region, and opted to pursue a career as a pilot rather than take part in a Rugby World Cup Sevens under the shadow of the Kremlin.
26 Aug 2012 - 2:45amPlaymaker Keith Robertson has plenty to worry about as Hong Kong prepare to take on South Korea in the HSBC Asian Five Nations Top Five tournament on Saturday.
The flyhalf, who is also the No1 goal-kicker in the team, is nursing a shoulder injury that has still eluded diagnosis by the medical staff.
2 May 2012 - 12:00amFront-row strongman Steve Nolan is expected to make his HSBC Asian Five Nations debut on Saturday against South Korea as Hong Kong look to build on their opening match victory over the United Arab Emirates in the Top Five competition.
1 May 2012 - 12:00amFlyhalf Keith Robertson will leave with the rest of the Hong Kong squad for Japan tomorrow for the Tokyo Sevens this weekend, despite receiving a three-match ban from the International Rugby Board.
27 Mar 2012 - 12:00amHong Kong suffered a bitter defeat in the final of the Shanghai Sevens last night, giving away a 12-point lead to lose to South Korea in sudden-death injury time.
29 Aug 2011 - 12:00amIt was a case of job well done for Hong Kong yesterday as they kicked off their HSBC Asian Sevens Series campaign with two impressive wins to set up a quarter-final against Thailand.
Dai Rees' men scored 13 tries and conceded only one as they outclassed Mongolia 59-0 and then put paid to a potentially tricky Malaysia side 28-7 with a superb first-half performance.
28 Aug 2011 - 12:00amKeith Robertson, fly-half for the Hong Kong Rugby Football Union, has a swollen right knee that is full of fluid. 'Can you see it?' he asks, poking it with his forefinger and making a putty-like indentation appear. 'It's pretty much a mess.'
7 Jun 2011 - 12:00amIt's a pity Hong Kong didn't make it to the Bowl final at this year's Hong Kong Sevens. If they had, there was every chance Keith Robertson would have won the Best and Fairest Player award. He deserved it.

The gospel of Jesus Christ is intimately bound up with the glory of Christ Himself. Moreover, all of the major themes of Christian theology are vitally informed by the person and work of our glorious Lord. Aware of these connections, Ryan McGraw gives us a big-picture view of the gospel that begins with the eternal plan of salvation, moves through the covenants of works and of grace, traces every stage of Christ's incarnation and work, and concludes with His reign in the church. Throughout the book, careful attention is given to the importance of the Trinitarian nature of God and the believer's union with Christ. Here is a call to faith in and fellowship with Jesus, demonstrating how the glory of Christ is truly the best news anyone can embrace.
Ryan M. McGraw is the pastor of First Orthodox Presbyterian Church, Sunnyvale, California. He is married to Krista, and they have three sons. He is the author of The Day of Worship: Reassessing the Christian Life in Light of the Sabbath, By Good and Necessary Consequence, and numerous articles and book reviews.
"It is a pleasure for me to commend warmly Ryan McGraw's latest book, Christ's Glory, Your Good. John Owen (whose works McGraw 'relishes,' to use an Owen word) wrote, 'He who discerns not the glory of God in the person of Christ . . . is an unbeliever.' McGraw introduces us to the biblical teaching on Christ's glory in an accessible, yet deeply challenging way. He is persuaded, as every Christian pastor should be, that studying the glory of Christ, as it is revealed in Holy Scripture, is an elevating, challenging, and transformative experience. McGraw has the ability, born of much study and personal acquaintance with Christ's glory, to set before us the multifaceted richness of the Savior's glory, as God the Son and as the God-man. in an age of shallow devotional theology, read McGraw and have your spiritual sinews fi rst stretched and then deeply nourished. I will be buying a number of copies to give out in my own congregation." — Ian Hamilton, Minister of Cambridge Presbyterian Church, Cambridge, UK

The hotel is nice and modern and the staff is amazing.
The room was modern and very clean. The staff helpful, professional and friendly. Good location in the city. All the meals I had from room service and onsite restaurants were very good.
On a couple of occasions took a long time to pick up room service dishes even after calling and requesting them to be removed.
Location Size of the room Cleanness
The room was not at the hotel main building Not as luxury as the hotel rooms Bkfast was served at another restaurant and was of lower quality that the one at the main hotel Money paid could have booked a room at a much nicer hotel Missleading information at the time of the booking. KAYAK should state that the room was an apartment house at another building block and not at the main hotel
Amazing view. Great room. Excellent staff.
Wifi signal in the room was weak.
It's in an excellent location in Bucharest.
The air conditioning in the room was inadequate.
We were on a tour.Great hotel and location.The hotel broke one of my bags .I am still waiting to see if Hilton will fix or replace my bag
Just the shopping
The housekeeping no good , they don't have room service , I ask for help in 7:30 pm I was in room 375 and I ask them to have new towel the till me sorry we can help you have wait till tomorrow morning .
Excellent location. Clean. Courteous, helpful staff. Although in busy location in city, it was quiet.
Excellent staff! Friendly and helpful.
No complaints
Excellent customer service from everyone in this hotel. Great central location. Very clean, no smoke odors. Excellent, above average breakfast buffet. Because my departure flight was very early they even prepared breakfast to go! Pleased beyond words!
Here's why:
We're not the seller At KAYAK we don't set prices, so it's not possible for us to guarantee what other companies are selling.
We aggregate tons of data for you Our service lets you quickly and easily compare results from hundreds of travel sites at once. In this sense, KAYAK is a search engine and we don't guarantee prices we find.
Why aren't prices accurate 100% of the time? Prices on airline seats, hotel rooms and car rentals can change frequently. Several people may also be trying to buy the same travel option simultaneously. As a result, you may find on occasion that certain prices are no longer available.

That's why a group of students at Imperial College London have invented a set of "bruise trousers" that show such athletes when and where they've received a serious impact below the waist. Read More

Kicking the cigarette habit is no picnic. It's a full-on resistance effort against an overwhelming craving. That's why smokers sometimes need more than will power alone to quit. Now a new device has been developed to add extra ammunition to the fight in the form of the SmartStop, an electronic wearable from U.S.-based Chrono Therapeutics that takes nicotine replacement therapy (NRT) to a new level and adds behavioral support, thanks to the possibilities of digital, wireless technology.

At first glance, "Vessyl" looks like an ultra-modern, but relatively ordinary, 13 oz (385 ml) mug. However, pour something into it and it becomes extraordinary: not only will it identify what type of drink it has in it, but Vessyl will also tell you its dietary content, such as sugar, protein, calories, fat, caffeine – even identifying the beverage by name – then take all of those results and synchronize them to your smartphone.

I think we will have better weather tomorrow,flumpy1. The FA cup match at Weston super mare had to be postponed we had so much rain. The pitch was deemed unplayable. Lots more flowers to come through the winter in my conservatory. My Golden Jubilee Year is going to finish with a bang.. The forecast after Sunday is for wet and windy weather again. We have a community Xmas Fair on Tuesday two doors up from me so that will be a chance to get out of the house at least for a bit. i will start my Xmas shopping as there is always lots of beautiful craft work for sale and it is all for charity.
The rain stopped momentarily; the cat from next door came out to see if any of the garden mice had been flushed out by the torrent; I could not venture far from the front door with my camera but I could snap away in the conservatory.
I planted one year before last and it has just been glorious, now four or five times the size it was when planted and seeding itself in the drive. The main plant is still flowering.
It is really dark and poring with rain and a duckpond has formed outside the kitchen door again. One of these days a mallard may discover it! Only my conservatory can bring a smile to my face this morning. Everything in there is still blooming and seedlings are growing well. I do not put the greenhouse heater in it till frost is forecast. The temperature on my old thermometer was 45 F this morning so no frost as yet.Forecast for today is rain till about 4pm so I may have to resort to office work today. I need to bring all my notes on Mr. Fothergills trials up to date. The Meteor peas up in the potager have flowers on but I doubt they will be pollinated at this time of year.
There was a piece about it in Amateur Gardening Magazine. fidgetbones, which gave you the email address to apply to. I believe other seed companies do similar things. It certainly made me very aware of the fact that seed companies are having to watch for effects of climate change in case they have to change the scripts on their seed packets. I used to volunteer as a guinea pig for new medical products at the university and doing these trials is something similar.
They are fidgetbones - trials for mr Fothergills Nation of Gardeners project. I am so happy I applied for this as i have had some super things to try. These have given me great delight. cannot wait to see how the plants trail in the winter and spring and I believe they get covered in pansies. The rain stopped and I thought I might get some good shots of the great show of red berries in the garden but it was so cold on my fingers i changed my mind. I think Sunday will be better day for that.I thought the red holly berries last year were good but this year they are superb, as are the various types of cotoneaster.
The jasmine is completely hardy. Mine is over 50 years old in my north facing front garden and never disappoints.
I am busy putting polyanthus like "Firecracker" underneath my Xmas box plants and evergreen ferns. They are in full flower and make lovely splashes of colour and are quite hardy. I have primroses galore flowering now including some pink ones so they may be planted into containers too. Campanulas will give you blue flowers.But what is giving most yellow in my garden at present is Jasminum nudiflorum which should flower from now till way into January when the snowdrops will be starting to make their presence felt.
Getting colder in Bristol from 9am according to the detailed forecast. Temp. going down from then on from 11 degrees. My garden is very wet indeed so we must have had heavy rain in the night. It is quite breezy already too. Any gardening will be done in the conservatory methinks. I have decided it cannot take the biggest pots of pelargoniums this year so will clean the window in the back of the garage and clear the floor of my gardening tools and sweep it and put them in there below the window for light but frost free. If I keep them fairly dry they should be all right. I may do that in my boots and old gardening raincoat f I can pluck up the courage. Taking part in Bristol's Green Capital of Europe's year means not losing any plants over the winter, especially such large specimens.
Such a lovely day. I discovered I had won 2x £25 from my Premium bonds so I splurged £38 on a year's subscription to the GW mag. and got two free RHS books as a gift too. My eldest son emailed me with news of his promotion. It did not rain till I had filled up the green wheeliebin with prunings for the emptying tomorrow. The buns I made turned out scrumptious and warmed the kitchen up while they were baking. And I correctly guessed the winner in the Design Challenge programme tonight! Oh and one of my fb friends won Best Front Garden Award in the Bury In Bloom Competition.

Title: | Almost-primes represented by irreducible polynomials |
Seminar: | Algebra and Number Theory Seminar |
Speaker: | Robert Oliver, University of Wisconsin |
Abstract: | |
Let G(x) be an irreducible polynomial with integer coefficients. It is conjectured that the set {n \in N: G(n) is prime} is infinite for most G(x). If P_r denotes the set of squarefree positive integers with at most r prime factors, we consider the set {n \in N : G(n)\in P_r} with the goal of showing that it is infinite for a suitable choice of r. Considerable work has been done on this problem, with the most notable results being due to Iwaniec, Buchstab, and Richert. Here we show that if deg(G(x)) = 2, then we may take r=2. For those G(x) with deg(G(x))>= 3, we establish conditions on G(x) which allow us to conclude that there is a suitable choice of r <= deg(G(x)). |

Sorry, don't have any info on working in Italy, but if you're going to be gone for a year, mind if I fill in for you? If we're similiar height and build, you won't have to put in for leave or vacation or quit, and I'll send you 40 percent of your pay Just something to kick around.
Best of luck finding help on the Italy issue. I hear its beautiful over there.

Working in Italy - yeah that would be cool! the dream of every backpacker that has ever been there is to be able to stay and actually earn money while being there... I envy anyone who gets the opportunity to do so!
Now, on a practical side, unless your Italian is language skills are good, your options will be limited. What it will take is some aggressive sleuthing to turn something up. Since you're a medic and an NYFD guy I think you have some experience in being smart and aggressive - it will definitely take both to find gainful employment over there...
A few suggestions:
You didn't mention what city your wife will be studying in. In Naples there is a large US base that has some jobs that are open to civilians. Check http://www.usajobs.gov/ and under "search jobs" put in Italy. Right now they have 8 jobs available. A lot of times these jobs are posted vets or Dependants only, but they can lead you to a job for you. Don't be discouraged if you're not "eligible" to apply. I would call over there to the base and talk to the base firefighters or ED hospital personnel, they may have some ideas. Can you teach CPR or ACLS, maybe a trauma course?
People everywhere want to learn English. You can put a local ad in a paper or one on the Internet.
Embassies and consolutes sometimes hire. You could work in a US, British or Australian facility.
While I think paramedics are the finest healthcare providers in the world, your work choices are limited, but there may be some local clinics in the big cities that treat ex-pats, a simple medical job might be found there.
Here's an interesting thread http://www.expatfocus.com/index.php?...viewtopic&t=71
Also check out www.ihen.com for living arrangements, want to trade your house in New York for a year with an Italian family? Maybe you can make it happen...
Sounds like a great time, let us know what works out...

You might have some trouble finding work in Italy unless its with the DOD or some U.S. organization. In the EU, they hire EU citizens first, and then outsiders have a shot at jobs. So unless you can gain citizenship to some EU country, working for an italian based buisness would be very very hard. I'd imagine municipalities there are even harder to get into if you aren't EU

It seems like sanity and rational behavior are missing in public schools today.
Piece of Paper Gets Girl in Trouble reports:
A South Philadelphia elementary student was searched in front of classmates and threatened with arrest after she mistakenly brought a "paper gun" to school, yet another example of the hysteria sweeping America's school system in the aftermath of the Sandy Hook massacre.
I might be able to understand the reaction of the teacher if it had been a real gun, but a paper gun? Maybe the teacher couldn't tell the difference?
Mission statement: On this blog we explore why homeschooling can be a better option for children and families than a traditional classroom setting. We'll also explore homeschooling issues in general, educational thoughts, family issues, and some other random stuff.
